This Looks Like a Job For...

Many years ago I was in a local mall and I happened to be wearing a
blue shirt with a Superman insignia. A woman walked past me with her
small son and the kid suddenly darted over to me and motioned for me to
bend down so he could speak to me. I leaned down and he whispered, 'You
forgot to take your glasses off."
Took me a couple of seconds to realize what he meant. Then I put a
worried expression on my face, snatched my glasses off, and stuck them
in my pocket.
"Thanks,' I told him. "I'm glad you warned me."
The kid grinned and ran back to his mom, who was also grinning. I
gave her a nod and walked on. The kid went home that day happy that he
had helped Superman preserve his secret identity. That was a good day.
